people here who have not followed it overnight, but a waking up or a to this news in israel, but of what he understands. and just 1st reports of explosions came in, entire run around to a local time here in israel. and shortly after, there was a 1st statement by the military actually confirming that it was indeed conducting, as it said, precise strikes on military targets in iran. and this has been long expected that israel will retire to these early as strikes in october, the ballistic missile attacks of by if i know we have learned over the course of the hours a bit more from the military and a, another statement about these targets that they, i'm instruct mississauga manufacturing facilities surface to air missile defense systems, probably taking out some of the defends. so indeed were military targets that had been the concern all along that is one might also talk to energy infrastructure or

nuclear asides. now the strikes at this moment appear to be calibrated in way. however, we do not know the extent of the damage and the scale on the scope of, of these attacks. now the army has also said it has achieved its goals among them, and that's quite interesting also that it has more freedom of action in the near future. it also had a post on the warning to yvonne no not to respond to this retaliatory action as it puts it, because this would for the escalate the situation. we also know at the moment, at least a no changes in the home phone guidelines that usually gives dictation also if there's an imminent threat, this is directed to the public to people here to know how they should act. and if there's any danger, antonio, at least uh, we have some reaction from iran. and now let's listen to

a statement from the wrong the ad defense for us that was read out on rainy and state tv, to senior regime. a job at the bottom, the in this morning. the fake regime in an active escalation attacked military bases into ron, who's this done button and a long provinces, go to the countries integrated air defense system, successfully tracked and confronted the act of aggression. want to your puzzles, honda? how about you? can sparkle ever go beat tag, cause limited damage to some areas box, the scope of it is being investigated data. that's the bottom latonya claim i introduced. and then what more do we know about it runs responds to well, i mean, this is basically what we got from them over the course of the night that they are saying and somehow confirming that it was indeed military targets as a to, to this statement. also that the defense in yvonne had engaged with

those attacks the incoming ms attacks and that it was limited in scope, according to them that it's happened in 3 different problem provinces as well that basically among them also the capital a tyrone know and it's one of the reading of this statement is more or less that yvonne is trying to downplay of the scope and the scale of this attack. also maybe leaving the door open not to for the escalated, but uh, you know, we have to wait and see whether be find out the, um, the exact amount of damage that was done a maybe to through sutler satellite images. but we don't know whether we will know more about it in the coming hours, but certainly for now with israel is projecting that it achieved its goals. it's wondering if i'm not to attack, but we haven't heard yet from the wrong and leadership what they intend to do about this attack. and of course is what is already fighting

a war on to all the friends name, the 11 on and gaza. what strategy is the, is really government pursuing here? well 1st of all, i think it's important to understand that this uh, um, retaliatory attack didn't come out of nowhere. it has been planned as well. had said it will respond to the missile attack by iran on october 1st. and this attacked by yvonne was already retaliation, as it said at the time of, for the killing of hezbollah and the doha, send us by law in the boot and other leaders and the senior commanders. so this has been, you know, going on in the, in a tip for talk between israel and yvonne a for quite to why the 1st time be so in direct attack from yvonne was basically in april, went into tucked as well with drones and missiles,

most of them were intercepted at the time the time also iran said this was in retaliation for an attack on it's on one of its embassy complexes in damascus. and this comes of course and against the backdrop of a loan of standing shed, a war between iran and israel. that broke out in the open, in the april for the 1st time. and as the right you said the region. now seeing a more obviously this on board and gaza for over a year with these devastating consequences for a civilian 7. also in liber non southern to the non a ground, the incursion there by israel, and as strikes across the country, the against his beloved. and of course this, you know, has brought both countries in a very dangerous situation of a tips for ties and the have to wait and see, know what the next moves will be. and this also by yvonne lied to tanya claim. i introduce a lindsey i thank you so much, tonya w reporters,

different statements in washington, dc told me, well, the response from the white house has been or, well, the white house is giving the cells mute. it's right now, but a few hours ago there was a response. number one, the us and the white house is emphasizing absolutely adamant about emphasizing that it had no active or passive role in this regulatory air strike, or a military operation of israel by israel against iraq. the white house is really, really keen on making iran and everybody else know that they really had no part in this. how ever it might as also said that the president of course, as well as vice president harris, who is on the campaign trail here, were brief in real time. there was a telephone conversation and a phone call between the secretary of defense, lloyd austin and his phone don't, is equivalent. and israel, a secretary of defense or defense minister

a got long and at austin the pedagogy fear, emphasized there that there the united states and enhanced. and that's a quote, enhanced force posture of the u. s. troops there for what reason to protect its own personnel. u. s. personal station in the region as well as in israel. as you know, there are 100 u. s. military personnel on sites to man these tact a system. this is an anti ms file, a system which was actually just delivered to is wrote in the pretext of the and now and thread totally atory actions of his role supposed to be taken against iran . the white house saying this that this was the right of israel to defend itself so that it stands by israel, that its support is iron clad for as well to defend itself. but of course that it helps, and there is, of course, hard to assess for the why does this for anybody else that this will not escalate

in any unmeasured form or to any unmeasured? no. that was the dw report of stuff on siemens in washington. journalist stella magna in the lebanese capital bay rouge told me before how this attack on iran could influence the situation there as well. most people are here among the population and loved on, on all very scared and frightened that this might to escalate further in one way, of course, because his paula here in lebanon is the link to the iranian regime. his butler is reports re is um 9 for being like um melisha that co ordinates its military action but also its a 4 and political dishes decisions quite closely with the rainy and regime. and therefore, fee is quite high that his bullet might play a role when you're on plans with originally ation attack against that is very

against israel. so people here are scared that this might worse the situation in the country because then and a further reevaluation attack is where could also uh escalate, further its, uh, military actions here and let on. but the 2nd tier, of course, is also that if things between your on israel continue to escalate that re a one step further to this very like often talked a region of war at that the will. we're not a, the state between israel cause a live on, on and syria, but that it will become bigger and bigger. and that, of course has bad insurance as for the whole region. and this is where people here also freight. yeah. just briefly, perhaps stella staying in lebanon and the conflict is there. what's the latest you can tell us? well, he and be rude. we had yes,

another night of air strikes yesterday and then, but before midnight, these are in the army started to, to attack this island suburbs of favored local media has reported that these really forces have carried out 7 air strikes within 30 minutes. and that was quite heavy and widely heard here in the city. also during the night quite close the off to israel started as it's the attack against iran. it also carried out sonic bombs is of a route that were heard in other regions as well. i noticed with people in the news of lebanon, but through an end even further, woke up to these massive sounds of explosions that then turned out to be sonic booms. but of course, that's very frightening when you're sleep during the night and you wake up to these massive, massive sounds, right, to gentle. this is the amount of their reporting and by root. thank you so very much the time for some of the other store race and making headlines around the
